Introduction:
A E A E
sprouted from a racist seed, the white men stole the land they need
A E C#m D
to renovate a state of hate of greed, and call it something great
A E A E
so every fall they give you thanx, for genocide of natives by the ranks
A E C#m D
now you can find fast food in everytown, McDonalds, Wendy's, Taco Bell
A E A E
and as free trade kills domestic jobs, they blame minorities for all their probs
A E C#m D
they lock 'em up for their enjoyment, say they're the cause of unemployment
A E A E
although they say that we're all free, it never felt that way to me
A E C#m D
as you sit back and watch us die, i cant help but asking
Chorus
A E A E
crooked cops on every block, and racist courts to lock you up
A E C#m D
a judicial system so corrupt, if yer not white you are a criminal
A E A E
educated by the biased man, the kids to dumb to take a stand
A E C#m D
faith in dreams that always die, but nightmares hold the upper hand
A E A E
it snowballs into worthless pawns, multiplying, buying on and on
A E C#m D
slaving for that weekly wage, but in the end guess who gets paid?
A E A E
although they say that we're all free, it never felt that way to me
A E C#m D
as you sit back and watch us die, i can't help asking
Chorus
